Q1. DESCRIBE THE FUNCTIONS OF THE KIDNEY
Q2. WRITE AN ESSAY ON THE
RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN-ALDOSTERONE SYSTEM
Q3. DESCRIBE THE PHASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE
CYCLE
1. Explain the renin - angiotensin- aldosterone system
(RAAS). Be sure to describe the role of each organ, hormone, and
enzyme involved, as well as elaborate on why such a system is
necessary even though the kidney is able to regulate glomerular
filtration rate through vasoconstriction and vasodilation of the
afferent and efferent arterioles.
2). This man has a long history of infectious
bronchitis. Why would this chronic smoker be especially susceptible
to infections of the bronchi?
3). Explain why...
Interactions of the DASH Diet with the
Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System
1. What is the scientific and social importance of the
interactions of the DASH Diet with the
Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System?
2. What are three major findings of the study?
Compare & Contrast the activation pathways and the
effects of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) and
ANP/BNP on sodium and water homeostasis.
Make your own schematic diagram, based on your understanding,
for the Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone System in its role for the
regulation of urine concentration and volume. Describe the effects
of each parts involved.
The Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone Pathway and the roles that the
kidney plays in the human body and how it works to keep the body in
balance. Include what happens if there is a homeostatic imbalance
as it plays this role.
